Re: Conditioning your batteries for max life
Im sorry but You should read a little more before you make a statement. You are saying the opposite of what the arcticle you linked stated. Nowhere in the arcticle does it say that chart is for Lion batteries with charge indication. It lists lithium ion, and contradicts your statement.
*Directly from the arcticle you linked:
-Li-ion comes partially charged. You can use the battery right away and charge it when needed.
- Li-ion is forgiving to partial and full charge. No priming is needed when new.
Fully charge and discharge battery. Repeat when readings get inaccurate.
-it is better to recharge more often; avoid frequent full discharges.
- on batteries with a fuel gauge, allow a full discharge once a month to enable reset
-Does not matter. Charging in stages is acceptable. Full charge termination occurs by reading the voltage level and charge current. Charging a full battery is safe and does not cause harm.
-It does not matter. The charger automatically cuts the charge current when the battery is full. A laptop may be connected to the AC when not in use.
- little heating is generated during charge. A large laptop battery may get lukewarm. Do not allow the battery to heat during charge.
